Kate Middleton Is Mistaken For Princess From 'Frozen'

Kate Middleton continued her Royal duties today in New York, attending her first solo outing at the Northside Center for Child Development in Harlem.

While anyone would have been excited at the prospect of seeing the Duchess in real life, a few of the kids were reportedly left doing a double take after they wrongly believed she was the princess from the movie Frozen.

"Do you know who's coming to visit today?" an administrator asked as Middleton made her entrance.

"Princess!" a little girl shouted.

The Duchess was told in advance that the children were all fans of Frozen, which she used as an opening line for conversation.

"They thought she was the princess from Frozen," administrator Rose Ann Harris told Us Weekly of the center's students.

Gaffes aside, Middleton carried out her duties with typical grace and elegance. Dressed in an immaculate black and white coat from British brand Goat, the Duchess greeted the First Lady of New York, Chirlane McCray, with a warm welcome before they entered the Child Development Center.

Inside, Middleton was tasked with wrapping Christmas gifts including Frozen paraphernalia (aha!), Dr. Seuss books, and a singing butterfly.

Middleton's engagements continued Monday afternoon with a luncheon at the British Consul General's private residence, while Prince William met with President Obama in Washington.
